I'm sure some others of you remember the suave and sophisticated Mr Jourdan.
"Louis Jourdan, the dashingly handsome Frenchman who starred in "Gigi," ''Can-Can," ''Three Coins in the Fountain" and other American movies, has died. He was 93.
Jourdan's biographer, Olivier Minne, said the actor died Saturday at his home in Beverly Hills, likely of natural causes.
"He was the last French actor from the Hollywoood golden era," said Minne, who is working on a book and documentary about Jourdan. "Louis was very proud of his career in America.
This article about his death states, ""Any actor who comes here with an accent is automatically put in roles as a lover," he complained. "I didn't want to be perpetually cooing in a lady's ear." Hey, I'll take the hit, Louis, since the article also states he romanced Joan Fontaine, Jennifer Jones, Grace Kelly, Shirley MacLaine, and Doris Day among others. Well, ok, with MacLaine I might have some reservations, but not the others.
